Sub chorionic haematoma

Hi everyone, just recently posted about a threatened miscarriage and found yesterday the bleeding was due to a sub chorionic haematoma. The wonderful (sarcasm) team at the hospital didn't think to explain what I might face between now and my next scan. (I have googled extensively now.) So today I have just had another huge bleed with clots but can't be scanned til Monday, although the Dr said it could be the haematoma coming away. Anyone with any experience of large multiple bleeds with an SCH and the pregnancy being ok? I'm 8 weeks and baby's heartbeat was strong yesterday xx

This happened to me with my last DD who is now 7. I was told to rest as much as possible which wasn't easy and I did lose a lot of blood which was very frightening. The bigger she grew the smaller the blood clot got and the less risk.

Yes. I had sch from 9-19 wedks. Had 6-7 big bleeds. So frightening isn't it! I'm now sat with DS3. I had him at 30+5 due to pprom(not necessarily related to bleeding as the same happened with DS1. So yes, it doesn't mean the worst. I got so 'used' to the bleeding that I stopped going up to the hospital when it happened. No pain-no panic was my motto
Good luck op x
